Gelded and resumed better than ever when scoring on the Rowley on June's reappearance (12f). Bombed out over C&D next time but back on his game when third at Haydock 3 weeks ago.

Latest win at Newcastle in January and just about better than ever when finding only an improving 3-y-o too strong at Thirsk a month ago. Ought to be a factor from 1 lb higher.

Dual 10f winner in 2019 and is going the right way this year, unlucky not to finish a bit closer on his last 2 starts. Same mark here and he's of serious interest.

Improved since joining present yard and landed good support in a 10.5f handicap at Haydock last month. Up 4 lb in a deeper race but return to this trip promises to suit.

Now 7 lb below last winning mark, gained at Epsom in September. Out of sorts in Saint Moritz over the winter and efforts this summer hardly brimming with promise.

Runner-up at Kempton in February but hasn't come close to that form in 3 starts upon resumption, tried in first-time cheekpieces latest.

Improved to make a winning return after 8 months off in 11-runner handicap at Newbury in June, keeping on well to score cosily. Clearly wasn't himself when bombing out at Doncaster latest.

Remains a maiden but once again showed she can be competitive from his mark when second of 5 in a handicap at Haydock on penultimate start. Possibly failed to stay last time.

Decisive winner of 12f handicap on final 2018 start but missed whole of last year and yet to run close to that form in 2020, albeit Newbury run last time was a shade more promising.

Signed off for Jamie Osborne with 7f/1m novice wins at Thirsk and Kempton last autumn. Longer trip promises to be within range on return/handicap debut for new yard and he's worth a second look.

Still a maiden, but a brace of runner-up efforts at Chepstow in recent weeks confirm she's in good order. This is a stronger race.

Form is on an upward curve, following 10f win with excellent pair of runner-up efforts, all at Windsor at up to 11.5f. Slightly stiffer test of stamina will suit.

Snapped a lengthy losing sequence on the Rowley in June but has long been a headstrong sort and he couldn't be controlled at Windsor last time.

Forecasts

Potenza (10/3), Knowing (7/2), Overpriced Mixer (4/1), Grinling (10/1), French Riviera (10/1), Matewan (12/1), Hawridge Flyer (16/1), Edmond Dantes (16/1), Junderstand (22/1), Golden Wolf (22/1), Berrahri (40/1), Fantastic Blue (40/1), Allegiant (100/1)

Verdict

KNOWING hasn't enjoyed the breaks on his last 2 starts and he may well have won a C&D handicap a fortnight ago with a clear run. As a result he looks well handicapped from the same mark, with improving 3-y-o Grinling and the reappearing stable switcher Overpriced Mixer feared most.
